    Venetian Deep Stack - Take One

    we played 1/2 at the Venetian last night and did ok. Fun stuff. Got to bed late but feelin fine

    We are 3 rounds in and on break. I'm double the original chips. Made a couple bonehead bluffs (but didn't lose much) but i've been getting a ton of action on my value bets. Two pairs, flush, kings, all getting paid off. Adrian is even at 12k, alexis at 10k or so, patti at 6, jeff at 6. I'm at 24k and blinds will be 100/200 with 25 ante.

    update at 3:50pm

    And just like that it is over. I played a pot for half my chips against the loosest guy in the table, and he hit his flush on the river. I ended up calling his all in on the turn, and he did indeed hit the 25% draw. I'm still working out if I played it correctly or not.

    After that I folded everything but my blinds for about 50 minutes, but when the forced bet got to 200/400 with 25 antes, my time was short. I couldn't put anything together and ended up getting my last 4000 in against QQ with a better full house.

    Everybody else is in the hunt. Funny how it works out sometimes. Adrian is at 30k and the blinds are 300/600+50. Not bad.

    Thanks for reading.

    update Adrian went out before dinner but jeff managed to get 23rd! Too bad it was only 250 profit for 10 hours of play :( priEd are very top-heavy
